Short video during construction phase a couple of years ago.
A few good shots too of Vancouver BC Canada.

I'd have to be dragged into that viewing pod though... :confused1: :help:

Yup, an interior elevator.
My hands get sweaty just thinking about that glass pod 250+ feet above the ground.

nice turbine. They stopped construction of turbines in Rhode Island for the past 9 months until the 'laws' are set.

Which laws are they tweaking, Tim?
